Abstract:

This article presents an investigation into exact and distorted similitudes and the related scaling laws for the analysis of the dynamic response of rectangular flexural plates. The response of a given model in similitude is determined from a generalization of the modal approach, which allows the use the mode shapes and natural frequencies in order to establish scaling laws. Analytical models of simply supported rectangular plates are used to produce both the original and distorted model responses. Some highlights about the distribution of the natural frequencies, the forced response and the energy response are given. The results show that, with the proposed methodology, it is possible to reproduce with good confidence the response of the reference plate, even if distorted models are used.

Abstract:

This paper evaluates the dynamic flexural response of sandstone from the Paskapoo formation in Alberta. Sandstone prisms were subjected to quasi-static flexure as per ASTM while a drop-weight impact tester was employed to generate stress rates up to 108 kPa/s. Companion testing under quasi-static compression on sandstone cylinders helped establish baseline properties including the compressive strength, elastic modulus, and Poisson’s ratio. It was found that the flexural strength and fracture toughness of Paskapoo sandstone obey stress rate sensitive models developed originally for concrete. However, the fracture toughness was more stress rate sensitive than its flexural strength.

Abstract:

This paper investigates theoretical flexural response of a partly overlapped piezoceramic PZT sensor and actuator pair which is attached on an infinite beam. In this study, three different overlapped lengths between the piezo sensor and actuator are considered and the response of each sensor and actuator is modeled theoretically and analyzed in the aspect of wave propagation in the beam. The out-of-plane flexural waves due to the action of the actuator are modeled in the beam and the sensor is modeled to detect the flexural waves. Because of the characteristics of the partly overlapped sensor and actuator pair, the sensor-actuator responses show specific properties after numerical analysis. In terms of frequency response function, the results of the three different partly overlapped cases display the magnitude and phase responses provide a better understanding in designing a vibration control system.

Abstract:

In Part I of this paper, stress–strain curves for micro-fiber reinforced cement-based composites containing high volume fractions of carbon, steel, and polypropylene fibers were obtained. Considerable strengthening, toughening, and stiffening of the host matrix due to micro-fiber reinforcement under both static and impact conditions were reported. In this paper, composites are characterized under an applied flexural load. Both notched and unnotched specimens were tested in four-point flexure; significant improvements in the flexural behavior due to fiber reinforcement were noted. Notched specimens were tested to study the growth of cracks in these composites and to develop a valid fracture criterion. With this objective, crack growth resistance curves and crack opening resistance curves in terms of the stress intensity factor were constructed. The paper recognizes the potential of these composites in various applications and stresses the need for further research. Key words: Portland cement-based materials, fiber reinforcement, fracture toughness, R-curves.

Full text

Abstract:

During severe earthquakes, ductile flexural walls are expected to exhibit inelastic flexural behaviour while other brittle deformation mechanisms, such as shear, should remain elastic. The philosophy of the Canadian seismic provisions for flexural walls is based on the assumption that the force reduction factor is applicable to both flexure and shear. If the bending moments are limited because of the flexural strength of a wall, then the shear forces are considered to be limited by the same ratio. Recent case studies have not confirmed this philosophy. Brittle shear failures in walls are still possible even if their shear strengths are established by the Canadian standards. This paper presents an analytical investigation on the shear demand of ductile flexural walls designed for three different seismic zones in Canada. For each zone, an ensemble of code compatible historical earthquake ground motions is identified. The shear demand of each structure, under each earthquake record, is obtained by nonlinear time-history dynamic analyses. In 77% of the cases, the computed dynamic shear demand is higher than the current code shear strength. To address this issue, a force modification factor for shear, different from the one for flexure, is suggested for the Canadian code. Key words: earthquake, seismic response, shear walls.

Full text

Abstract:

The inelastic response of a typical 12-storey ductile reinforced concrete flexural wall is examined under strong earthquake ground motions to determine the importance of Pdelta effects and assess the seismic demand in shear and flexure. According to the stability factor approach of the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC) to account for Pdelta effects, the flexural strength of the wall has to be increased by as much as 29%. However, the inelastic dynamic analyses indicate that Pdelta effects on lateral deformations and curvature ductility demand are negligible for walls that meet the 2% NBCC interstorey drift requirement. The current NBCC stability factor approach to consider Pdelta effects is thus overly conservative for shear wall structures, which respond significantly in their second and higher modes of vibration. The analyses also indicate that the magnitude and distribution of shear forces and bending moments in the wall are different from those obtained using the NBCC static design procedure. Plastic hinges can occur above the base of the wall, although the probable moment resistance diagram exceeds the assumed moment envelope after plastic hinge formation at the base. Dynamic amplification of shear forces due to higher mode effects was also observed, which must be accounted for in design. Dynamic shear amplification factors proposed for wall structures in the commentary to the current standard for design of concrete structures in Canada compared well with the results of this study.Key words: seismic, flexural wall, Pdelta effects, stability coefficient, inelastic response, National Building Code of Canada, dynamic shear force amplification, higher mode effects.

Abstract:

This research is focused on modeling the behavior of reinforced concrete columns subjected to lateral loads. Deformations due to flexure, reinforcement slip, and shear are modeled individually using existing and new models. Columns are classified into five categories based on a comparison of their predicted shear and flexural strengths, and rules for combining the three deformation components are established based on the expected behavior of columns in each category. Shear failure in columns initially dominated by flexural response is considered through the use of a shear capacity model. The proposed model was tested on 37 columns from various experimental studies. In general, the model predicted the lateral deformation response envelope reasonably well.

Abstract:

Acrylonitrile–Butadiene–Styrene (ABS) is a very significant and widely used amorphous thermoplastic that possesses high impact resistance, toughness, and heat resistance. Bending collapse is a predominant failure of polymeric structural members in the vehicle environment under angled and unsymmetrical collisions. Therefore, it becomes critical to investigate the flexural behavior of the ABS beam and find its energy absorption capabilities under a transverse loading scenario. Four-point bending tests were carried out at different strain rates and at two different span lengths to investigate the deformation behavior of ABS. This paper examines the influence of strain rate, friction coefficient, Generalized Incremental Stress-State MOdel (GISSMO) and Damage Initiation and Evolution (DIEM) damage models, yield surfaces, and the span length on the four-point flexural behavior of the ABS polymeric material. A Semi-Analytical material model (SAMP_1) in LSDYNA was utilized to numerically evaluate the behavior of ABS under four-point bending. From extensive investigative explorations, it was found that the flexural behavior of ABS is dependent upon the span length, loading strain rate, and friction coefficient between the specimen and the supports. The modeling of damage was successfully exemplified by using the inherent damage law of the SAMP-1 material model, GISSMO, and DIEM damage formulations.

Abstract:

This paper presents an experimental and analytical study on the flexural response of a steel-concrete composite truss beam. This integrated unit consists of a triangular steel truss, a concrete slab on it, and stud connectors. Three simply supported composite trusses with different configurations of shear connection (η) were evaluated via three-point bending tests. The effects of the shear connectors’ configuration on the flexural response (i.e., load-deflection, load-slippage, and load-strain curves) of the composite trusses were examined. The commercial finite-element (FE) software ANSYS was employed to conduct numerical simulations. An FE model was developed for the composite truss and was validated using experimental results. A parametric study was performed to investigate the effect of the shear connectors’ configuration on the flexural response of the composite trusses. If η < 1, the bending capacity increased with η. In contrast, if η ≥ 1, the effect of η on the bending capacity was negligible. Finally, a design method based on the degree of the shear connection was proposed to predict the ultimate capacity of the composite truss, and the predictions agreed well with the experimental results.

Abstract:

Composite cylinders are generally used as primary load carrying structures. Their constitutive behavior up to failure is crucial for a critical design. This paper focuses on the ultimate flexural strength of a polymer based composite cylinder subjected to bending. In such a case, the outmost filament of the cylinder subjected to the maximum bending stress fails the first. The complexity, however, lies in the fact that the failure of this outmost filament generally does not correspond to the ultimate failure. Additional loads can still be applied to the cylinder and a progressive failure process will result. To deal with such a problem in this paper, the cylinder is discretized into a number of lamina layers with different widths. The bridging micromechanics model [Huang, Z. M., Composites Part A, 2001] combined with the classical lamination theory has been applied to understand the progressive failure process generated in the cylinder. Only its constituent fiber and matrix properties under bending are necessary for this understanding and reasonably good accuracy has been achieved. However, the ultimate failure of the cylinder cannot be figured out only based on a stress failure criterion, as one cannot know a priori which ply failure corresponds to the ultimate failure. An additional critical deflection (curvature) condition must be employed also. By using both the stress and the deflection conditions, the estimated ultimate strength of the cylinder agreed well with an experimental measurement.

Abstract:

Flexural toughness is a measure of energy absorption capacity and characterization of material’s ability to resist fracture under flexure loads. Concrete, when unreinforced, behaves generally well in compression but its flexural behaviour particularly the post-peak performance is rather weak and brittle. Conventional method has been to include steel fibres to enhance the flexural capacity but was discouraged by their impractically heavy cost and weight constraints. This paper presents the use of high performance polymeric fibres as a cost-effective and lightweight potential alternative which also fits well into the modern era of sustainable construction seeing that they leaves substantially lower carbon footprint compared to steel. Mechanically deformed high performance polymer (HPP) made of 100 percent virgin polypropylene was adopted and incorporated into concrete mixes and its composite performance was experimentally investigated and compared to plain concrete and those reinforced by steel fibres. An analytical method to predict the overall flexural toughness response has also been proposed and verified.

Abstract:

Flexural capacity of RC beams gets significant improvement with externally bonded Carbon Fiber-reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheet. The anchorage system is a valid means to restrain or delay debonding failure caused by stress concentration at the ends of CFRP sheets. In this paper, four RC beams, measuring 150 × 200 × 1900 mm, were examined under four-point bending test. One beam was applied for contrast. And other three were CFRP strengthened with no anchorage, CF anchors (carbon fiber anchors) and U-wraps (U-shaped CFRP wraps). The primary purpose of the experiment was to validate the effectiveness of CF anchors and U-wraps in improving the flexure character of beams strengthened with CFRP sheets. The experimental results revealed that the strengthened beams using anchorage systems performed remarkably in beam ductility, flexural capacity, load-deflection response and failure mode compared with the contrast beam. The anchorage systems were more effective and necessary to enhance the flexural behavior of beams as using CFRP laminates for flexural strengthening.

This research concerns the effect of compression molding parameters on conducting polymer composite (CPC) properties such as electrical conductivity and flexural strength. In the present work on CPC, focus is given to graphite (G) as filler and polypropylene (PP) was use as the binder. The Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array has been used as design of experiment (DOE) while the electrical conductivity and flexural strength were assumed to be quality characteristic (responses). The electrical conductivity was measured using four point probes and flexural strength was measured using three point tests according to ASTM D638. Classical analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to investigate the significant of each compression molding parameters and finally propose the optimum compression molding parameters. But for several responses, the optimum condition for one response is not very likely to the optimum condition for other response.

Abstract:

In order to analyze the influences of axial compression ratio and loading speed to the dynamic response and failure mode of RC columns subjected to blast loading, the collapse test for 6 reinforced concrete column models were conducted. Results show that there are three kinds of failure types: shear failure, flexural failure, flexural-shear failure. It tends to failure in shear mode when compression ratio is 0, and tends to failure in flexural or in flexural-shear mode when compression ratio is 0.5 and 0.25 respectively. The peak value of the exerted load and end moment will increase with the increasing of axial compression ratio in the first stage (approximately when compression ratio is less than 0.25) and then will decrease. The peak value of extra axial forces will decrease with the increasing of axial compression ratio.

Abstract:

If the coating is sufficiently flexible, no tears, cracks, or debond will occur. Although geopolymers have a great potential as a coating material, research on the flexural properties is very limited. In this study, a three-point bending test and scanning electron microscope were used to investigate the flexural properties and microstructure of the geopolymer composite coating (GCC), respectively. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) consists of a combination of mathematical and statistical techniques, which is useful in modelling, analyzing, and optimizing responses that are influenced by several factors. It was used in determining the relationship between each factor and determining the best composition for the composite coating. Several factors were considered including ratio of activated alkaline (AA) solution (V1), RHA/AA ratio (V2), and curing temperature (V3). Results showed that the RHA/AA ratio mostly influenced the response, followed by curing temperature while the ratio of AA was not significant. Lower V2 and V3 values provided the highest flexural strength and modulus. The optimum composition which provided the best coating of flexural properties were V1 = 3.5, V2 = 0.39, and V3 = 45.7 °C. Microscopic images showed that coating with high flexural properties (ductile coating) exhibited minor and rough cracks as compared to that of coating with low flexural properties (brittle coating) which displayed a crack with a clean linear cut. Brittle coating was highly agglomerated and has a significant negative effect on the flexural properties. By developing the optimum composition, the GCC may potentially be a good alternative as a building construction coating material.

Full text

Abstract:

The economic design of steel caissons for drilling and production platforms in the Arctic Ocean, formed from steel plates and supported by a rectangular grid of stiffeners, beams, and girders, requires that the full strength of the plates be mobilized to withstand extreme ice forces. A comprehensive method of analysis is needed to describe the behaviour of continuous steel plates into the inelastic range when they are acted upon by transverse loads. From this analysis, design procedures could then be developed.An extensive literature search has not revealed that satisfactory solutions exist for the load–deflection response of transversely loaded flat plates beyond the elastic limit when both flexural and membrane action are taken into account. Experimental data available in the inelastic range of behaviour are also limited.By considering various limiting simplified behavioural modes for the load–deflection response of uniformly loaded flat plates of zero aspect ratio, possible load–deflection domains are established. The limiting responses investigated are: elastic–inelastic flexural action, elastic membrane action, inelastic membrane action with increased stiffness resulting from increased Poisson's ratio in the inelastic range, elastic flexural membrane action, and action of a fully yielded cross section in flexure that gradually gives away to a fully yielded cross section in tension. Within the domain so established, a load–deflection behaviour is proposed that is in reasonable agreement with the results of the limited test data available. The results of a finite element analysis using the ADINA computer program are also in reasonable agreement with the proposed analysis. Design applications are discussed. Key words: deflection, elastic, elastoplastic, flexural resistance, membrane force, membrane resistance, plates, steel, strains, stresses, transverse load.

Abstract:

Purpose This purpose of this paper is to quantify the effect of local instability arising from high shear loading on response of steel girders subjected to fire conditions. Design/methodology/approach A three-dimensional nonlinear finite element model able to evaluate behavior of fire-exposed steel girders is developed. This model, is capable of predicting fire response of steel girders taking into consideration flexural, shear and deflection limit states. Findings Results obtained from numerical studies show that shear capacity can degrade at a higher pace than flexural capacity under certain loading scenarios, and hence, failure can result from shear effects prior to attaining failure in flexural mode. Originality/value The developed model is unique and provides valuable insight (and information) to the fire response of typical hot-rolled steel girder subjected to high shear loading.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper concerns the mechanical behavior of ACSR (aluminum conductor steel-reinforced) conductors under static-loading conditions, which may comprise any combination of tension, torsion, and bending. The model described is quite general and can be applied to other types of helically armored cables. A stiffness matrix is developed and relations are given for axial, torsional, and flexural rigidities and for coupling parameters. For small curvatures, the flexural rigidity is comparable to the upper limit accepted in current practice by ACSR users. As the curvature increases, however, frictional forces develop between the outer layers and sliding of wires may occur, with the result that the flexural rigidity decreases. The tension level also influences the flexural rigidity of the conductor. Actually the model does not consider the flexural rigidity of the system as a fixed entity but as directly influenced by local compressive forces and internal radial and tensile forces. The analysis can also apply to situations where a given number of initial constituent wires have failed and the load is transferred to neighboring wires, leaving the conductor unbalanced; it will be seen how internal arrangements manage to accommodate the local perturbation.

Abstract:

Sandwich panels with carbon fiber fabric/epoxy resin face-sheet and aluminum foam core have a potential application value in the engineering field. To study the bending mechanical properties of the reinforced sandwich structure, three-point bending test was conducted by using WDW-T100 electronic universal tensile testing machine. The relation between load and displacement of the aluminum foam sandwich was obtained. Deformations and failure modes of the specimens were recorded. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the failure mechanism. Results showed that when aluminum foam was reinforced by carbon fiber fabric as face-sheet, its flexural load-carrying capacity and energy absorption ability improved significantly. Foam core density and number of carbon fiber plies had serious impacts on the peak load value and energy absorption value of the composite structure. It was suggested that aluminum foam core sandwich structure with low foam core density of 0.49 g/cm3 and 5 plies of carbon fiber fabric had the highest energy absorption ability and medium load-carrying ability. Failure modes analysis showed that shear failure leaded to the final failure of sandwich panels with medium peak load and interface de-bonding leaded to the final failure of sandwich panels with high peak load.

Abstract:

The term ‘flexural tensegrity’ applies to beam-like structures composed of segments in unilateral contact, whose integrity under flexion is provided by tendons (cables), tensioned and later anchored at the end segments. In addition to the cable tension, the constitutive response depends upon the shape of the contact surfaces between consecutive segments, identified by the corresponding pitch lines and constructed with a double couple of conjugate profiles, in order to achieve an internal constraint equivalent to a spring hinge. The response is non-local in type, because the cable elongation, and consequently the stiffness of the spring hinges, depends upon the rotations of all the segments, but this effect becomes negligible under moderate deflections. In this case, the structure can be approximated with an elastica in the continuum limit. Testing of prototypes, manufactured with a 3D printer, shows a very good agreement with the theoretical predictions for different designs of the spring hinges. The system, whose stiffness can be functionally graded and actively controlled, can be packaged when the cable is slack and deployed by pulling the cable at one extremity. It appears particularly suitable to build soft arms for robotics or deployable compliant booms for aerospace applications.
